
      Levant data sets:

Folder containing CAMEO-coded events (N=153,934 in original ; N= 138,004
after duplicate filtering); coverage is April 1979 to June 2008. TABARI
coding dictionaries are also included. Source is Reuters. This version
of the data uses ISO-3166 ALPHA-3 country codes and CAMEO sub-state
actor coding conventions, and was coded using the latest version of
TABARI (0.6.3B7), so at present it is our best version of the Levant
data. TABARI coding dictionaries are also included.

Folder containing WEIS-coded events (N=190,784); coverage is April 1979
to March 2005. TABARI coding dictionaries are also included. This
version of the data uses ISO-3166 ALPHA-3 country codes and CAMEO
sub-state actor coding conventions, so a number of the codes are quite
different than those used in earlier Levant data sets. It combines
Reuters and AFP sources; there is a fairly serious discontinuity where
the sources switch.
